24、I used to think courtesy (礼貌) was a thing of the past. However, I changed my mind when I met a courteous man.
Last Saturday, I went to a cafe with my daughters. It was crowded with the usual loud crowd and we had to climb up the stairs to find an empty table. After enjoying coffee and snacks, we were ready to come down the stairs, where the narrow space made climbing down only possible in a single line, with hardly any space for another person to either climb up or come down.
Just as I was in the middle of my descent (下去), a man got to the main entrance (入口) of the cafe which was right in front of the staircase. I was sure I would be pushed by the man who would want to go up in a hurry. Anyway, I kept coming down as fast as I could. My daughters were already down, looking up at me worriedly, hoping I would get down before the stranger went up the stairs.
Nearly getting down, I noticed the man still standing near the door. Later, I passed him at the entrance door which he kept holding open. I looked back thinking he was still at the door, deciding whether to go in or find another less crowded place. However, I saw him going up the stairs, two at a time.
I told my daughters about it and all of us felt bad for we did not even thank the courteous gentleman.

25、 Has anyone ever told you that eating carrots will help you see in the dark? This is just one of many incorrect beliefs you may have heard. Below, there are some scientific explanations for three mistakes that people make about their eyes. Let's take a look.
It may be helpful for people who have trouble sensing lights in the dark. Carrots are rich in vitamin A, which helps the eyes to turn light into information for your brain. This allows people to see in darker places. However, eating more carrots won't help you see better. A certain minimum (少量) amount will help, but a large number of carrots will not give you superhuman vision.
If your parents have bad eyesight, will you have bad eyesight, too?
Myopia (近视) can be passed from parents to children. A study by the American Optometric Association found that if both parents are myopic, there's a 33 to 60 percent chance that their child will be. For children who have one parent with myopia, the chance is 23 to 40 percent, and it's down to 6 to 15 percent for kids with non-myopic parents.
So if your eyesight is bad, your children might still have good vision.
Do color blind people see the world in black and white?
Color blindness doesn't usually mean that people see the world like an old movie. There are different levels of color blindness. Some people are only color blind in low light. However, in the most serious form of color blindness, everything is shades of gray.
This is actually connected to how serious the cone cells (视锥细胞) have been damaged. Normally, cone cells contain various kinds of chemicals, which are sensitive to different wavelengths (波长) of light. If a few chemicals are missing, people then can't tell certain colors apart, especially green and red. Another commonly confused pair of colors is yellow and blue. If cone cells do not contain those chemicals, then the most serious form of color blindness occurs.
【1】According to the article, which of the following about eating carrots is true?
A.Eating carrots stops the brain from seeing.
B.Eating carrots doesn't help you see better at all.
C.The more carrots we eat, the better we are going to see in the dark.
D.Eating some carrots is good for our eyes to some degree.
【2】If both parents have myopia, their child's chance of having myopia is .A.33%—60% B.40%—67% C.23%—40% D.6%—15%
【3】What is the cause of color blindness, according to the text?
A.Watching movies for too long. B.Cone cells not working properly.
C.Getting too little exercise. D.Changes in the wavelength of light.
【4】What does the underlined "this" refer to?

26、 People usually check whether their keys, wallets and phones are with them before going out. But many people in China now have one more important thing to take, a face mask. They hope that it can protect them from the polluted air.

27、 You probably see a lot of things made of plastic, like bottles and bags, every day. What happens when that plastic gets thrown away? Scientists say much of it ends up in oceans and causes problems for creatures(生物)like fish and birds.
“Plastic puts ocean creatures in danger," says Allison Schutes of the Ocean Conservancy. That's a group that works to protect the world's oceans.
A recent study shows that each minute, enough plastic reaches the ocean to fill up one garbage truck! That same study predicts that by the year 2050, our oceans will have more plastic than fish.
All that plastic is bad news for ocean life. Some ocean creatures die when they get tangled(使缠结)in pieces of plastic. Others accidentally eat it and die, too.
Most scientists say taking out all the plastic that's already in the ocean would be impossible. Instead, they say the best way is to prevent more plastic from getting there.
Many groups are already taking action. They organize cleanups on beaches to pick up litter before it reaches the ocean. ▲ , volunteers from the Ocean Conservancy collected more than 16 million pounds of it last year!
Experts also encourage people to use less plastic. Many cities and towns in America have banned plastic shopping bags. Experts also suggest that people drink out of reusable bottles and try reusable shopping bags.
“These seem like small things," says Schutes, "but they can help make a big difference.”
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。

Ferris wheels sit in the middle of some great cities around the world. These tall, wide wheels move round and round w【2】 carrying people. You can have such a wonderful time c【3】 with friends while enjoying a fantastic view under your feet.
